The sun was rising when Daryl’s delivery (递送) truck with goods reached the highway. This was the best time of day to drive, when the roads were wide open and empty. He felt sure he was going to make it to Los Angeles before midnight.
Then he saw it, a large lump in the middle of the road. He stopped and found the lump was a girl. He tried shaking her awake but she wouldn’t move, so he carried her to the side of the road. At least she wouldn’t be run over (辗过) there. Now she was someone else’s problem because he didn’t have time to be a hero. He climbed back into his truck but as he looked in his mirror and saw the girl still lying by the side of the road, he knew he couldn’t leave her. Daryl put her into his truck and drove to the next town.
An hour later he arrived at the police station. After explaining what had happened, he prepared to leave, but the policeman said he needed to make a report. Daryl knew it was impossible for him to get to Los Angeles on time now.
Three hours later the report was done and the girl had recovered somewhat. She explained that she had fallen on the highway, weak from hunger. She also thanked Daryl for saving her life. Daryl told her that he had been happy to help, but as he left the police station he knew his boss wouldn’t be happy.
Just as he was about to start the car, his mother called. “Have you seen ” she said, “a bridge collapsed two hours ago, the one that you drive over on the way to Los Angeles.”
Daryl’s blood ran cold. If he had been on time, he would have been on that fallen bridge. Daryl realized how lucky he was.
24.What did Daryl plan to do
A.Go on holiday. B.Deliver some goods.
C.Visit his mum. D.Make a report.

English is full of funny expressions that don’t always make sense. Idioms are phrases and sentences that do not mean exactly what they say. Even if you know the meaning of each word, you may not understand the idiom because you don’t understand the culture behind it. Here are some English idioms based on animals.
When children jump around and act silly, their parents may tell them to stop “monkeying around”. To “monkey around” means to do things that are not useful or serious, or to simply waste time.
Many American families have and love pet dogs. But for some unknown reason, Americans use “dog” in a phrase that means to feel unwell. If you are “as sick as a dog”, you’re really, really sick.
Sometimes you may also hear cats mentioned in conversations, “I told you to keep that secret, but you have just ‘let the cat out of the bag’!” You probably guessed it—that idiom means to reveal a secret or tell facts that were previously unknown.
Dogs and cats don’t always get along, but they appear side by side in a commonly used idiom. When it rains heavily, people might say it’s “raining cats and dogs”.
Heavy rain often ruins people’s plans for outdoor activities. But on a lovely day, you can have a picnic. If a swarm (一群) of tiny bugs love your food and start to hover (盘旋) around you, it would be really annoying. That experience perfectly explains why people often tell someone who keeps bothering them to “stop bugging me”.
Idioms are very common in both spoken and written English. If you want to have a better understanding of English, you have to learn idioms.
28.According to Paragraph 1, idioms are _______.
A.expressions which are based on animals
B.expressions with rich cultural background
C.expressions that always make sense
D.expressions which are easy to understand
29.“Monkeying around” can be used to describe children _______.
A.jumping around and wasting time
B.doing something useful and serious
C.playing with monkeys with their parents
D.spending time playing with their family pets
30.What can be learned from the text
A.Dogs and cats always get along nicely.
B.Bugs can be used to show your annoyance.
C.Americans believe cats can give away secrets.
D.Americans use the idiom “as sick as a dog” to describe a healthy man.
31.How does the text mainly develop
A.By sharing experiences. B.By making comparisons.
C.By giving examples. D.By listing figures.
D
A team of engineers at Harvard University is trying to create the first robotic fly. Designed to do what a fly does naturally, the tiny machine is the size of a fat housefly. Its small wings allow it to stay in the air and perform controlled flight tasks.
“The difficulty with a project is that we have none of its components(部件) and so we have to develop them all by ourselves,” said Robert Wood, a Harvard engineering professor.
They created a series of systems to start and make the robotic fly. “The seemingly simple system which just moves the wings has a number of interdependences(相互依赖) on every component. Each of the components has to perform well, and then has to be matched well to each other,” said Wood.
While this first robotic flyer is linked to a small off-board(外接的) power source, the goal is eventually to equip it with a built-in power source, so that it might someday perform information-gathering work at rescue sites(营救现场), in farmers’ fields or on the battlefield.
Wood says the design offers a new way to study flight mechanics and control at insect-size. Yet, the power, sensing and computer technologies on board could have much wider use. “You can start thinking about using them to answer open scientific questions, you know, to study biology in ways that would be difficult with the animals, but using these robots instead, he said. So there are a lot on technologies and open interesting scientific questions that are really what drives us to go on.”
32.What is the typical feature of the robotic fly
A.It’s automatic. B.It’s quite powerful.
C.It’s controllable. D.It’s very small.
33.We can infer from the passage that the robotic flyer can________.
A.help do farm work B.gather information in the battle
C.fly at a very high speed D.answer many scientific questions
34.What is Wood’s idea about the robotic fly according to the last paragraph
A.It has wide practical uses.
B.It is highly questionable.
C.It gives scientists interest in flying machines.
D.It points to a new direction in studying biology.
35.What can be the best title for the passage
A.Harvard’s Study in the Field of Insects
B.Robotic Fly—a Copy of Real Life Insect
C.An Interesting insect—Robotic Fly
D.A big discovery in Engineering Science

My father bought a motorcycle years ago. He said we could use it wherever we wanted to go because he wasn't always able to get around to shuttling(接送)us .However, nobody could ride except him in our family, so he decided to teach me how to ride the motorcycle. Young as I was, I
longed to learn it because it could help our family a lot. Living in a remote area we had a hard time in terms of transportation.
Although I had to experience lots of bruises(擦伤) before I mastered riding, it was worth it. The motorcycle was a really big help. I could send my younger brother Ryan to school early. I could take Mom to town for our little business. Sometimes I even could ride to the farm, up in a steep mountain, to lend my father a hand. As time went by, these strengthened my determination to ride and I was no longer afraid of riding whatever road I would take One afternoon, my father called me and asked me to take the empty bucket(水桶) ,he left at home to the farm. He had hung up before I could tell him the situation at home. Mom had gone downtown to meet a customer and left Ryan to me. so I couldn’t go to the farm.
I took Ryan to our neighbors and had them help me look after him. But when I was about to leave for the farm, Ryan ran to me, crying for going with me. I told him to stay there because the mountain road was so rocky and it was too dangerous for him to go up there. Still, he continued to cry aloud and insisted on riding with me Having tried in vain to persuade him and considering that my father urgently needed the bucket, I gave in. So after placing Ryan at the back of the motorcycle in a hurry, I started to take the road, going to the mountain with him and the bucket.

Paragraph1.
While we were on our way, I found the road was wet because of the previous day's rain. It was so slippery that I had trouble riding. Suddenly the front wheel of the motorcycle hit a big rock, throwing Ryan and me away. And I looked for Ryan immediately. When I saw him lying on the road and crying at the top of his lungs, I was scared to death. I rushed to him and checked him carefully. Thank goodness he was safe! There were only some minor injuries on his knees.
Paragraph2
As soon as we got home, I dealt with his injuries immediately. Seeing his injure knees. I felt ashamed for my failure to protect him as an elder sister. I knew the road was dangerous, and the accident could have been avoided if I had forced him to stay at home. But I hadn’t. After my parents came back home. I told them what had happened with great regret. However, instead of blaming me, they gently comforted me, saying that I was just eager to offer help This experience made me painfully aware that I should love our family in a better way.
